i checked the liner notes.well prince wrote thanks 2 on cd 2 track 10:michael bland,etc(npg)
im just confused why prince didnt credit the song with michael bland?as rhonda's bass always mentioned on each song credit. but i guess you're right,when i first listened 2 the song,it made me think,its drummong is so bland!kinda remind me of ssssh(gold experience)
thx 4 the correction biggrin

Bass: Let's Work
Play In The Sunshine (One of the best basslines he's ever laid to tape. I love the way the bass becomes prominent during his verses/chrous, then it takes a backseat during other portions of the track.)
Sign O' The Times
What Do You Want Me 2 Do
If I Was Your Girlfriend worship
The Ballad of Dorothy Parker worship

Drums: Tamborine
Slow Love (I love his drumming on this track, this style has become a neo-soul template. Can somebody say High-Hats?)
Call My Name
Crystal Ball thumbs up!
The first four songs on Parade

Yes, the bass work on NEWS is Rhonda. I really think he wanted to highlight his band on that disc more than anything.
